Metaphysics

Category: Science & Research  ·  Sub-category: physics  ·  Last updated:
Metaphysical inquiry into the fundamental nature of reality. Covers ontology (what exists), substance and properties, universals vs. particulars, free will and determinism, personal identity, philosophy of mind (dualism, physicalism, functionalism, the hard problem of consciousness), causation, time, possible worlds, Buddhist metaphysics (Nagarjuna's sunyata, dependent origination, two truths doctrine), and process philosophy (Whitehead). Use when exploring questions about existence, consciousness, identity, free will, or the fundamental structure of reality.

From the source SKILL.md

Metaphysics asks the most fundamental questions philosophy can pose: What exists? What is the nature of reality? What am I? These questions resist empirical resolution — not because they are unscientific, but because they concern the framework within which science itself operates. This skill covers the major branches of metaphysical inquiry with worked examples from both Western and Buddhist traditions.

What this skill does

Metaphysics is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the physics sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/metaphysics/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when exploring questions about existence, consciousness, identity, free will, or the fundamental structure of reality.
